Elite 80's on a Sweet 16 afternoon

TUCSON - Another desert dandy in the forecast this afternoon.

Expect mostly sunny skies and highs in the mid 80's today, according to News 4 Meteorologist Jeff Beamish. Cloud cover increases tonight, leading to less sunshine tomorrow afternoon. Temperatures should still peak in the 80's Friday through Easter weekend.

A cold front tracks toward the state Monday, although models are hinting it may skirt off to the north. Regardless, gusty winds are possible Monday afternoon followed by a slight cool down Tuesday. The 80's return by the middle of next week.
